Luger loader
 

I purchased at auction a snail drum loader with some parkerized overspray. Works like a charm, has proper B/N marking and seems to me to be original. Just wondering how much of a project it would be to remove the parkerize paint or if I should even try?

Parkerizing is an immersion/chemical process; not sprayed on. Try lacquer thinner and see if whatever it is comes off. If blued, use Naval Jelly. Strip-Eeze takes off baked on paint (takes a while).
